  2. The excuses are that his mother and sister live in London, he must be gutted that they don't love him enough to move to Newcastle.
  3. SKY+'d it but not seen it yet.
  4. Tbf that is hilarious. The gaff he made on a visit to Australia always makes me chuckle, on greeting a group of Aboriginies he said: "Do you still chuck spears at eachother "?
  5. I'd go with Vista, its much better now than when it first came out, more titles are compatible and programmed with Vista in mind, before long you won't be able to avoid Vista. What about downloads and streaming is it a menace? I use bitTorrent and streaming on my Vista machine.
  6. Euro Championships or Euro Vision ?
  7. There are times I hate working in a workshop with a bunch of Engineers.

  9. "Even more irksome was the wariness with which the British regarded Philip when he first came on the royal scene. A poll taken in 1947 revealed widespread dismay at Philip's alien origins. Never mind that he was, like Elizabeth, a great-great-grandchild of Queen Victoria. To the public he became 'Phil the Greek', an opprobrious nickname which still surfaces from time to time today. It was inaccurate. Philip was born a Prince of Greece, but his ancestry was actually Danish and German. The nickname was none the less wounding for that, though." He line is oringinally from the House of Hannover crossed with the Danes. The Danes had the practice of exporting Royalty and Royal lines to countries where the natives didn't really trust each other to run things. Our Royals are mostly Krauts as well Stevie if you were wondering. Saxe Coburg Goethe till the name changes. Aye but if a Paki is born in England, are they Pakistani or English? They're English of course they are, so Phil remains Greek till the day he dies. For fuck sake, you will never meet a less racist person than me unless you're Scottish
  10. Holland for me, couldn't support Spain, racist spic bastards.....
  11. Online auction site eBay has said it plans to overhaul its feedback system and will ban sellers from leaving negative comments about buyers. EBay said problems were occurring, and slowing down trade, when buyers left negative comments about sellers who then retaliated with their own views. From May, those selling on eBay will not be able to leave unfavourable or neutral messages about buyers. The move, which will affect users worldwide, has angered many sellers. Sellers say it will leave them unprotected. Critics of the changes argue that by taking away a seller's right to complain about a problem buyer they will have very little recourse for action when a sale goes wrong. And they complain that by still allowing buyers to leave dissenting comments about sellers, eBay has skewed the whole trading process. When both sides have equal access and rights to leave negative comments about each other it is a well balanced trading process, they say. However, eBay counters that problem buyers can still be dealt with. "If a buyer doesn't pay, the seller can easily contact eBay, we will review any complaint and maybe remove the buyer," a spokesman said. The changes aim to "improve the overall customer experience", eBay said. It added that many buyers would not leave negative comments for fear that sellers would retaliate. As a result, buyers and sellers may not get a fair picture of what is actually happening between trading parties. It maintains that the majority of transactions go "swimmingly". EBay says that only a minority of sellers leave negative feedback for buyers.

    I can think of one thing, but I don't think I've got the will power.
  14. He seems desperately inconsistant in my opinion, but I guess swapping him around from position to position doesn't help, he needs to be played consistantly in one position if he's going to be happy at the club, I'd play him in place of Emre, he's far more productive in my opinion.

    For some twisted reason my Mrs puts gravy on hers. *pancakes that is !
  16. Where did you see that Alex ? doesn't seem to be avaliable anywhere ? I borrowed it off a mate who'd been trying to get it for a while. Half the trouble was he couldn't remember the title as he'd seen it on telly years ago. It's available on Amazon but it's only Region 1. The soundtrack album is called Apollo:Atmospheres & Soundtracks btw. Cheers, I'll see if I can get hold of that.

  19. Its a game card that has a memory card slot in that allows you to download games off the net and put on the card to play on the DS, I've just filled a 1gig card with about 24 games on to play for free.
  20.

Mine was £29.99 with a 1 gig micro SD card It arrived today, fantastic piece of kit, regret not getting one ages ago ! Now going to stick all of the DS games on eBay.
  21. You're the one that likes The Shield aren't you? [/withering sarcasm] On that, just finished series 1 of the Shield. It's all a bit Might start series 2. I might have been harsh on it considering I haven't seen it. I must also apologise to Jimbo for going all Parky on the show which could well be excellent. I was just light headed at an hour of the day I barely knew existed, and reacted badly to the genius that is The Sopranos being questioned. The fuck all the fuss is about is the most gorgeous show ever made. It's not so much a TV show as an all time classic 100 hour long film, being shown on TV in parts. No other episodic show comes close to it's symbolism and deeper subject matter. I know that further up I said the West Wing is better, but honestly, that was just heat of the moment hyperbole. The West Wing is brilliant for a TV show, but it's just an intelligent and well written political soap opera. The Sopranos sits above The Godfather(s). It elevates television to an art form. No offense taken, I was expecting watching the Sopranos to be a life changing experience but I was left feeling somewhat underwhelmed, I think with it being hyped up so much I had high expectations, had I see it without the build up I may have thought more of it.

  23. Series 1 of The Sopranos What the fuck is all the fuss about ?
